T0 @Zt whom it may concer-n.'

Be it known that I, tiisT-.ivn Gviasofi, a citizen of the United residing at International Falls', in the county of Koechiching and State of Minnesota, have invented new and useful Improvements lin Garbagelncincrators, of `which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvemeiits in garbage incinerators and has particular application to a garbage burning furnace wherein the heating chamber disposed below the ivaste receiving chamber.

In carrying out. the pre it invention, it.

wherein the garbage or iva. te chamber will bc i'zonstructed in suc-li manner that the waste matter ivill be eli'ectively con siimed and wherein the heat-ing chamber 'will be disposed below.' the garbage chamber and so formed as to enable the maximum heat thereof to be delivered to the garbage chambei'.

It is also my purpose to provide an in cinerator of the -elass described wherein the heating chamber and garbage 'receiving chamber will be so formed and correlated lith the abovix and otherobiects in,y viewz the invention consists in the "constructi-on, combination an l arrangement (,pa'rtshcrcinaftcr set forth in aii''l falling within the scope of the clain'is. f

In the accompanying drawings: Figure l is a vieiv in front elevation of a garbage incinerator constructed in accordance with the present invention. Fig. i2 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view therethrough. Fig. 3 is a cross sectional view of the same. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a detail of the invention.

Referring now to the drawings in detail, 1. designates a casing which, in the present instance7 is circular in cross section. This casing is formed interiorly to provide a .gar-

` bage receiving chamber 2 and the. fire. chamber 3 below the garbage receiving chamber. The garbage receiving chamber 2 is preferably oval-shaped and has the relatively large end forming the bottom thereof, while Specification of Letters Patent.

proximateij.' cent-rally thereof. The open.

ing establishing communication between the chambers L and 3 is substantially rectangular as illustrated in Fig. 3 and is relatively small as compared with the base or bottom of the fire chamber. In this instance, the casing l 4is formed of brick and lime mortar mixed with Port-land cementy while the fire and garbage chambers are lined. with fire 'oi-icl; disposed in lire clay.

.l suitable form of grate 3' is placed airi'i' the openiiig between thc fire and garbags chambers and serves to support the ii'astc matter within the chamber 2 and act to break up the gases issuing from the fire chamber o that siiclngases will pass around the ivasti material anjd heat the Walls of the upper ihaiiiber so that the gases from the iii-.iste matter .iu thegarbage chamber will be distilled oli from such material and be consumed. lt ii-iil be noted that this grate may lic constructed from old Scrap iron Such as pipe, odd castings and the like. and isv thirriire inexpensive in construction and (rmt.

Secured. to .the iipp'er end of the casing 1 and losing thcv upper extremity of the ovalsliapoil vasto rcceii ing chamber 2-is a hood l roiistructcil of any suitable material.. In the presi-nt instance, this bood is friistoconical in shapiaiid connected with the relatiwly small oud thereof and projecting up- `ivarilly therefrom is :in outlet llue 0l' stack 5. This lliie is composed of a number of sections (3 secured together end to end in axial alim-ment and the joint at the confrontin ends of thc sections is preferably inturne so that suitable rust preventing fluid may be introduced into the stack. Mounted upon the upper end of the stack 7 is a spark arrester in the vform of a cylindrical body 7 composed of wire mesh and having the uprovided with a hinged cover or cap 8 a so constructed of wire mesh.
